[AJD] what have I got?

[greg at theoldtractorcompany.com]

Also, don't forget that the service parts grille or replacement grille that was supplied 
by Deere for the M and MT actually was the later model 40 grille so it's not uncommon to 
see a model M or MT running around with a model 40 grille. These grilles were available 
new from Deere up until the early 1980's.  The last new ones from the Denver depot were 
tossed into the dumpster in front of my parts driver's eyes. Ah if only it were me that 
had been standing there!
It made me ill when he returned from town and told me what had happened. To top it off, 
the dumpster was picked up and hauled away while he was standing there waiting on his 
daily orders to be pulled. So I couldn't even make a frenzied phone call to the depot to 
see what could be done.

Oh well

Greg
